> By interpreting this purely as an attack on white males ONLY Come on, man! He's not doing that! He was responding to this claim you made just two posts above: > I don't think anyone is saying that white men are a "problem". There's so much defensiveness in these counter-articles coming out as though this is some specific attack on white males. Despite Asian people being overrepresented and White people being underrepresented—in fact, despite Asian men being the most overrepresented of the demographics listed by Google (honestly: congrats!)—CNN and other media go for the fashionable target: White men. It's interesting: When Asian people succeed, White people admire their hard work and determination. When White people succeed, White people feel shame and guilt. |

I think that's an exaggeration. When's the last time whites felt shame about Buffett's or Gate's success?
The problem for minorities or women is that it seems like every time race or gender is brought up in tech, the majority comes out in droves to steer the conversation into a discussion of white male hardship while also completely avoiding or the dismissing the original issues brought up about minorities and women in the workforce.
